Description
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION
[0001] The present application claims the benefit of Chinese Patent
Application for Invention No. 201710021070.9 for a Waking System in
Barcode Scanner filed Jan. 12, 2017, which is hereby incorporated
by reference in its entirety.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0002] The present invention relates to barcode scanning, and more
particularly to a method of actuating a barcode reading platform by
combining omnidirectional laser scanning and area-imaging
approaches to trigger an imaging assembly in response to sensing
laser pulses reflected and/or scattered by surrounding objects.
BACKGROUND
[0003] Generally speaking, barcode reading with a bioptic scanner
is based on combining omnidirectional laser scanning with
integrated area-imaging techniques. Many modern bioptic scanners
address this requirement by implementing IR modules or image
processing methods to sense the movement and wake the imaging
assembly. However, the IP modules often increase the overall cost,
and the image processing methods tend to exhibit poor wake up
performance. Moreover, the integration level of the laser and
imaging systems remains low, leading to a slow system response. For
example, in U.S. Pat. No. 5,637,854 issued to Thomas, a barcode
scanning is limited to sensing laser beam reflections to determine
a presence of an object, underutilizing an opportunity to use the
signal to wake the imaging system as well. In U.S. Pat. No.
5,280,162 issued to Marwin, a barcode scanner relies on detecting a
reflected light generated by an AIM LED illumination source to wake
a laser scanning system. In U.S. Pat. No. 8,196,834 issued to
Vinogradov et al., a barcode scanner combines a light source, a
light detector and an object sensor, thus resulting in a bulky
structure with limited integration of elements.
[0004] Therefore, a need exists for a method of actuating a barcode
reading platform, while having a fast response combined with lower
cost and power consumption compared to the modern bioptic scanners.
This can be accomplished by efficiently integrating omnidirectional
laser scanning and area-imaging approaches, which may lead to an
improved waking performance, reduced bulk and cost of the scanning
assembly, and a power usage optimization.
SUMMARY
[0005] Accordingly, in one aspect, the present invention embraces a
method of actuating a barcode reading platform by efficiently
combining omnidirectional laser scanning and area-imaging
approaches to trigger an imaging assembly in response to sensing
laser pulses reflected and/or scattered by surrounding objects.
[0006] In an exemplary embodiment, a method of waking an
area-imaging assembly in a bioptic barcode scanner focuses on
aligning a scanning pattern of an omnidirectional laser scanning
assembly with a field of view of an area-imaging assembly disposed
within the bioptic barcode scanner, producing laser pulses,
measuring and analyzing a return signal of the laser pulses to
sense an object proximal to the bioptic barcode scanner, followed
by waking the area-imaging assembly.
[0007] In another exemplary embodiment, a method of actuating a
barcode reading platform describes scanning an area with laser
pulses produced by a laser scanning system, analyzing laser pulse
feedback, comparing results to a predetermined threshold to detect
a presence of the object, triggering a barcode imaging system, and
imaging the barcode using the barcode reading platform.
[0008] In yet another exemplary embodiment, a method of capturing
an image of a barcode with a hybrid scanner focuses on actuating a
laser scanning system of a hybrid scanner, illuminating an object
with optical laser beam pulses, detecting laser beams reflected
and/or scattered by the object, transmitting and analyzing a signal
indicative of the detected laser beams to determine a presence of
the object by comparing a level of the laser beams with a
predetermined threshold, actuating an imaging system of the hybrid
scanner, and capturing an image of the barcode.
[0009] The foregoing illustrative summary, as well as other
exemplary objectives and/or advantages of the invention, and the
manner in which the same are accomplished, are further explained
within the following detailed description and its accompanying
drawings.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0013] The present invention embraces a method of actuating a
barcode reading platform by efficiently integrating omnidirectional
laser scanning and area-imaging approaches.
[0014] FIG. 1 shows a method 100 of waking an area-imaging assembly
in a bioptic barcode scanner, according to an embodiment. At 102, a
scanning pattern of an omnidirectional laser scanning assembly
disposed within a bioptic barcode scanner is aligned with a field
of view of an area-imaging assembly disposed within the bioptic
barcode scanner. At 104, one or more laser pulses are produced
using the omnidirectional scanning assembly. At 106, a return
signal of the one or more laser pulses reflected by one or more
objects proximal to the bioptic barcode scanner is automatically
measured. At 108, an object proximal to the bioptic barcode scanner
is sensed by analyzing the return signal. At 110, the area-imaging
assembly is woken.
[0015] In one embodiment, sensing an object can include sensing an
object displaying a one-dimensional barcode. In another embodiment,
sensing an object can include sensing an object displaying a
two-dimensional barcode. Additionally or alternatively, analyzing
the return signal can include detecting movement of the one or more
objects proximal to the bioptic barcode scanner.
[0016] FIG. 2 shows a method 200 of actuating a barcode reading
platform, according to an embodiment. At 202, an area proximal to a
barcode reading platform is scanned for an object using laser
pulses produced by a laser scanning system. At 204, laser pulse
feedback produced by the laser scanning of one or more objects
present in the area proximal to the barcode reading platform is
automatically analyzed. At 206, results of the laser pulse feedback
analysis are compared to a predetermined threshold. At 208, a
presence of the object is detected. At 210, a barcode imaging
system is triggered. At 212, a barcode is imaged using the barcode
reading platform.
[0017] In an embodiment, the imaging system can include an
area-imaging platform. Additionally or alternatively, using laser
pulses produced by a laser system can include using laser pulses
produced by an omnidirectional laser system.
[0018] In an embodiment, the method 200 can include counting a
number of produced laser pulses, and triggering the barcode imaging
system when a total laser pulse count exceeds a predetermined total
pulse threshold value. Alternatively, the method 200 can include
counting a number of negative laser pulses, and triggering the
barcode imaging system when a negative laser pulse count exceeds a
predetermined negative pulse threshold value. In an embodiment, the
method 200 can further include counting time over which laser
pulses are produced, and triggering the barcode imaging system when
a negative laser pulse time exceeds a predetermined time threshold
value. For example, the predetermined time threshold value may
constitute 50% of total time.
[0019] FIG. 3 shows a method 300 of capturing an image of a barcode
with a hybrid scanner, according to an embodiment. At 302, a laser
scanning system of a hybrid scanner is actuated. At 304, an object
is illuminated with one or more pulses of an optical laser beam
generated by a laser scanning assembly disposed within the hybrid
scanner. At 306, one or more laser beams reflected and/or scattered
by the object are detected. At 308, a signal indicative of the
detected laser beams is transmitted. At 310, the transmitted signal
is analyzed to determine a presence of the object by comparing a
level of the reflected and/or scattered laser beams with a
predetermined threshold. At 312, an imaging system of the hybrid
scanner is automatically actuated. At 314, an image of the barcode
is captured.
[0020] In an embodiment, the laser scanning system and the imaging
system can be actuated simultaneously. Additionally, the method 300
can include digitizing the captured image of the barcode to create
a digitized image, transmitting the digitized image of the barcode
to a processing assembly, and decoding the digitized image.
[0021] Device and method components are meant to show only those
specific details that are pertinent to understanding the
embodiments of the present disclosure so as not to obscure the
disclosure with details that will be readily apparent to those of
ordinary skill in the art having the benefit of the description
herein. In various embodiments, the sequence in which the elements
